Description

Smelting method for refining inclusions in H13 hot work die steel
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of refining inclusions in die steel, and particularly relates to a smelting method for refining inclusions in H13 hot work die steel.
Background
The 4Cr5MoSiV1 (H13) hot die steel is used as chromium air-cooling hardening type hot die steel, is widely used as a material of a hot forging die, a hot extrusion die and a large-sized die-casting die, can be used for manufacturing a plastic die on some occasions, and is one of hot die steel types which are used in the world at present and are the largest in dosage. The H13 hot work die steel is generally very harsh in industrial production, and is often required to withstand the effects of high temperature, high pressure, strong abrasion, thermal fatigue, stress corrosion and the like during working, and also to withstand the repeated thermal shock and mechanical shock of the high temperature alloy molten metal, which require the H13 hot work die steel to have high hardness, corrosion resistance, excellent thermal fatigue resistance and the like.
In H13 hot work die steel mainly suffering from fatigue fracture, the inclusions present in the structure thereof have a great influence on the service life thereof, and in particular, some brittle inclusions and irregular inclusions, etc. present in the steel matrix, tend to form strong stress concentrations. Experimental studies by Tridello et al show that the size of inclusions in H13 hot die steel has a great influence on the fatigue limit of steel in the use process, and through the research on the influence of the size of inclusions in H13 hot die steel on the fatigue limit of steel, the fatigue limit of H13 hot die steel is reduced by 21% when the size of the inclusions in H13 steel is maximum 31um [ A. Tridello et al, VHCF strength H gradient in large H13 steel special cases]. Procedia Structural Integrity, 2016, 2 : 1117-1124.]. Liujianhua et al analyzed the distribution of inclusions in H13 hot work die steel ingot and found that the types of inclusions in the ingot are mainly near-spherical CaO-Al2O3-SiO2Inclusions, irregularly shaped MgO-Al2O3The inclusions, massive TiN-VN inclusions, as well as strip-shaped VC-CrC-MoC inclusions and a small amount of CaS-MnS inclusions distributed along grain boundaries and the like are researched and found to be large-sized strip-shaped CaO-Al inclusions2O3-SiO2The impact of Inclusions on the toughness of H13 hot-work die Steel [ Hao Wang et al Formation and Evolution of Non-Metallic Inclusions in Calcium Treatment H13 Steel reducing Electroslag Replacing Process [ J]. ISIJ International, 2019, 59(5) : 828-838.]Therefore, it is necessary to control the size of the alloy during melting. In addition, the research also finds that the Steel ingot has a small quantity of inclusions near the center of the head, a large quantity of inclusions at the middle part and the tail part, a great difference between the total oxygen quantity of the center part and the head part structure, nonuniform distribution of the inclusions in the structure and a large quantity of large-size inclusions [ Jianan-hua Liu et al, inclusion variation Variations of Hot Working Die Steel H13 in Refining Process [ J-hu Liu et al].Journal of Iron and Steel Research International,2012,19(11):1-7.]. The experimental study of the H13 hot work die steel under argon protection and electroslag remelting in the atmosphere by Huangyu et Al and the analysis of inclusions in the prepared steel ingot show that the H13 hot work die steel produced by the protective atmosphere electroslag remelting process has low oxygen content, the mass fraction of the H13 hot work die steel is only 0.0015%, and oxide inclusions are mainly MgO-Al2O3-SiO2And inclusions, wherein small-size D-type oxide inclusions with the size of 1-3 mu m account for 62.5% of total inclusions, and in comparison, the mass fraction of oxygen in H13 hot work die steel which is not prepared by adopting a protective atmosphere is higher and is 0.0024% [ Huangyu, Xiexi, Kongguang, display, Zhandong, Severe, and strict-definition-faithful ] H13 steel forms Mg-Al-O series inclusions and controls [ J-Al-O series inclusions]Steel 2017,52(06):34-39.]. H13 hot work die steel imported from abroad contains a large amount of fine Al2O3-SiO2The sizes of the inclusions are less than 1.5um, and a large amount of nano-scale inclusions exist, and researches show that nano-scale Al in the tissues is in dispersed distribution2O3-SiO2The inclusions have no influence on the fatigue performance of the H13 hot work die steel basically; at present, the domestic H13 hot work die steel is mainly produced by adopting an electroslag remelting process and vacuum meltingSmelting process, however, the D-type Al in H13 hot work die steel obtained by electroslag remelting or vacuum smelting process2O3-SiO2The majority of the inclusions are concentrated in 2-3 um and there is a small amount of Al2O3-SiO2The size of the inclusions can reach 5 mu m and still be micron-sized inclusions, the grade A + B + C + D + DS of the inclusions is less than or equal to 4, the micron-sized inclusions still have great influence on the fatigue performance of the H13 hot work die steel, and the inclusions are difficult to use in some environments with very strict working requirements. In addition, the shape of the inclusion in the H13 hot-work die steel structure has great influence on the performance of the die steel, the shape of the inclusion is defined by the aspect ratio of the inclusion, the aspect ratio of the inclusion is the ratio of the longest axis passing through the centroid of the inclusion to the short axis perpendicular to the centroid of the inclusion, the smaller the aspect ratio is, the closer the shape of the inclusion is to the spherical shape, the larger the aspect ratio is, the closer the inclusion is to the long shape, and the test shows that the long shape of the long CaO-Al alloy is2O3-SiO2Inclusions greatly reduce the toughness of the H13 hot work die steel. Al in H13 hot work die steel2O3-SiO2The inclusions account for the majority of the total inclusions, and therefore how to hot work H13 into die steel such as CaO-Al2O3-SiO2Further controlling the size of the inclusions to obtain nanoscale Al2O3-SiO2H13 hot work die steel with more inclusions and only containing a small amount of micron-sized inclusions; at present, the grade A + B + C + D + DS of the inclusions in the high-quality H13 hot-work die steel is less than or equal to 4.5 according to the North American NADCA die-casting association regulation, the grade A + B + C + D + DS of the inclusions in the high-quality H13 hot-work die steel is less than or equal to 3, the size of the inclusions has obvious influence on the performance of the H13 hot-work die steel, and therefore, how to reduce the Al content in the H13 steel2O3-SiO2The aspect ratio of the inclusions is tied up, and the size of the inclusions in the steel is reduced so as to improve the performance of the H13 hot work die steel, and the method is one of the research focuses of the smelting process of the H13 hot work die steel.
